lurchers 2,762 Posted May 31, 2016 Report Share Posted May 31, 2016 (edited) Cheers lads.. Always heard good feedback about dogs off his stock.. I heard off 2 lads who had them and they said his dogs were good for singing all night in a kennel then gave them away,I seen him struggle getting rid of a litter at one of the shows up Northumberland to and they must of been 3mths old.plus when you watched him judge a show he was always with chipper and even though chipper was stewarding for typp it was always chipper telling him what to pick.you couldn't do anything but laugh considering typp was supposed to know his stuff.

Think what you like but I know of dogs from Hancock excelling at every aspect of lurcher work. You might know your stuff, you might have good dogs but you always slag off anyone else dog whether it be from Hancock or not, and something's never change, and whin will never change 1 Quote Link to post
tyne 25 Posted May 31, 2016 Report Share Posted May 31, 2016 never ever slag of good dogs i breed of them if there that good or find out how there bred im pretty opend minded when the old dogs come through but im totaly a beliver the more work a dog sees the more good or bad pionts and you breed accordinaly , its not rocket sceince some were , its a hard game if your out in allsorts so you realy need to give your self chances so breeding of treid and tested stock is not a bad way to go ,maybe im wrong ,we should all by of commercail breeders , but i dont think so Quote Link to post
tyne 25 Posted May 31, 2016 Report Share Posted May 31, 2016 believe me if they exelld at all lurcher work iwouldnt breed another dog in my life , thats for sure Quote Link to post
Somewhereyournot 1,117 Posted May 31, 2016 Report Share Posted May 31, 2016 How can u say they don't? I know of good fox dogs, good hate dogs, rabbit dogs and deer dogs from Hancock. Not saying he pumps out first class all round excellence because I don't believe one dog can be brilliant at everything. Just saying there definitely are good dogs from him out there. Hasn't lana or one of your other dogs got Hancock in the line? Quote Link to post

roybo 2,873 Posted June 1, 2016 Report Share Posted June 1, 2016 There must be some good ones out of Hancock's yard ,if you breed 5 litters or more a year out of collies and greyhounds There BOUND to be some decent dogs if a few get in the right hands,stands to reason. Doesn't make it right though. But same old story when the very word of collie cross is mentioned Hancock gets battered for being a peddlar ,and every back yard breeder lies about what's in there stock , old and boring now if you want a Hancock crack on If you want a pup from worked parents there a couple of litters for sale on here right now that will do a decent lurchers job. 5 Quote Link to post
